Genealogy is big business these days, as many people want to trace their ancestry back as far as they can. But who would have thought when Louis L'Amour published the Daybreakers in 1960 that the family of Sackett brothers and cousins would make such a big impact in this arena. I have one of these books, and have had since it came out. It does indeed fill in some of the gaps which I know LL wanted to fill in with other books, but didn't have the chance to. For that reason alone this book is worth having to help keep the reader straight as to who was related to whom and so forth. There is a nice section detailing this. All in all this book is a fine addition to any Louis L'Amour collector's set of his works.

A must!!
An absolute must for readers of the Sackett Saga. An incredible amount of detail...including the Sacvket family tree, and, best of all, maps for every story. Will greatly increase your enjoyment of any and all of the Sackett books.!!

An absolute must for anyone reading the Sackett series. Also fascinating due to the L'Amour information at the beginning.
